📝 Criticism Class

 On June 4, our criticism classes were scheduled to begin but had to be postponed due to a student union strike. The sessions resumed on June 5, and I had the opportunity to attend two observation classes—Anu G. Saji from the Natural Science department and Anupama A. from the Malayalam department. 

Later, I rejoined my own department where Adithya presented a lesson based on the 5E model, followed by Alfy George, who used the Inquiry Training Model. With these sessions, our criticism class came to a close for the day.

In the afternoon, our Physical Science and Natural Science departments jointly organized the World Environment Day programme, which included various engaging activities and games, spreading awareness on the importance of protecting our environment. The day was a wonderful mix of academic learning and environmental responsibility.
